Any engagement with someone on the Cultural Marxist Left (hereafter CML) becomes a revelation of why worldviews matter. Further, any engagement with the CML becomes testimony that arguments and reason are not received in good faith by the CML.
The CML own a worldview that has as it main presupposition that reality is fundamentally made up of a oppressor vs. oppressed dynamic. That is their imagined starting point. Having that as their fantasy starting point they further imagine their Utopian world where oppression (as they define it) no longer exists. They own this vision of an Utopian egalitarian world and then in all their “reasoning” they war against anyone who doesn’t share this primary presupposition and the subsequent implication that the world must be repaired (Tikkun olam) by putting down the oppressors and lifting up the oppressed.
Never mind that the oppressed might be oppressed because they need to be oppressed. If any oppression anywhere exists as experienced by anybody (sodomites, trannies, furries, feminists, Satanists, etc.) that oppression needs to be lifted and it is their mission in life to see that happen.
The CML reasoning matrix looks something like this;
1.) Imagine a egalitarian/Utopian world
2.) Create and name gaps between said Imagined world and the real world
3.) Insist that said gaps are examples of oppression that need to cease
4.) Tikkun Olam
So, when one encounters the CML one is encountering someone who has an alternate view of reality. They used to call that being insane. There is no common ground between someone whose main presupposition is anchored in the oppressed vs. oppressor egalitarian Utopian fantasy world and someone who believes that hierarchy is good, that some people need to be oppressed because they are wicked, that Christianity is superior to all other false religions, and that the CML smells of sulfur.
Let’s us speak here a moment about the vision of the CML. How exactly does the CML want to repair the world. Well, in the CML world the Trustee family (and even the nuclear family) must be destroyed. For CML the family introduces hierarchy into the world. Hierarchy is evil because hierarchy automatically means somebody is being oppressed. As such, the family has to be reimagined and redefined. This usually means the pursuit of tearing down patriarchy since family in the West, created and shaped by Christianity, was patriarchal. Patriarchy, like hierarchy, is oppressive and must be ended. This is turn means rabid support for Feminism since the way to tear down Patriarchy is by having Matriarchy.
Secondly on this score, education becomes a primary tool of the CML to repair the world. Schools have become and must continue to be centers of radicalization. Education as the responsibility of brainwashing children into seeing the wicked oppressive nature of their own culture. White children must be taught that they come from a inherently oppressive and wicked stock. Perversion must be taught as being praiseworthy because by perversion the oppression of the straight white males can be brought to a halt. Schools must teach and inculcate the oppressor vs. oppressed reality and enlist the kiddie to be part of the cadres who are resolved to repair the world by being part of the long march through the institutions. Schools must become transmission belts that pass on the oppressed vs. oppressor world as well as hatred of Biblical Christianity.
Thirdly, Western culture being a primary carrier of oppression must be socially re-engineered. Culture is a means by which consent is arrived at and so culture must be commandeered by the CML to manufacture a oppressor vs. oppressed worldview. Culture is socially engineered by the media world producing film and television that mocks the “oppressors” and honors the oppressed. Culture is socially engineered by the State as it passes laws that countenance and approve of things like sodomy, abortion, and transexualism. Culture is socially engineered by the “Church” when it retreats in the face of the work of the CML to “repair the world,” and by becoming silent. Cultural is socially engineered by parents who refuse to say “no” to their children who have are and becoming socially engineered because the parents are too afraid of losing Johnny or Susie.
Fourthly, even something as benign as language must be weaponized to advance the cause of the CML. Language is thought to have encoded power dynamics and so it must be altered to serve the CML ends. Pronouns become person variable. Certain words are not allowed to be uttered. Orwellian doublethink must be learned and employed.
Consider also that the CML worldview is not falsifiable. This means that the oppressor vs. oppressed dynamic can never reach a point of resolution because there will always be a new oppressor and oppressed class. The CML requires oppression. It is the fuel by which it is propelled. This means that for every putative oppression that is ended in the pursuit to repair the world, there will be three more putative oppressions that will arise that need to warred against. The CML demands a lowest common denominator world as it always pursues ever more disintegration into the void of egalitarian Utopianism. There is always someone who is not equal and we all must be brought down to that lowest level. If you disagree at any point along the disintegration into the CML void you will be cast aside as a “bigot,” or as someone who wants to protect their privilege or as someone that is inflicting harm.
The CML is living in a different reality and their goal is reshape the world (Tikkun Olam) to fit their alternate delusional reality. Reasoning with these people is a waste of time. They are examples of those Jesus the Christ spoke of when he advised the necessity of shaking the dust off your feet. To reason with these people is to cast pearls before swine. Our prayers for them must be that the Holy Spirit would open their eyes to see the miserable end that their thinking will bring them that they might repent and trust Christ alone.
